Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the process and factors in the formation of the identity of the Russian writer Vasily Eroshenko as a classic writer in Chinese culture in the 1920s in China. The analysis of the authors demonstrated that the ideological content of the work itself, the special cultural context of the May 4th Movement period, the translation of Lu Xin's works, as well as the recommendations of a number of famous public figures, new youth publications and the products of many publishers became important factors in shaping the story of classic writer Vasily Eroshenko.

During the "May 4th" movement, deep and important progressive changes took place in China. There were many translator associations in the country that performed a large number of translations of foreign literary works and various other publications. And this was not only an effective way of spreading new literary ideas, not only facilitating the penetration of the modern progressive forms of people's cultural life into the broad masses, but also served as an effective criticism of outdated feudal approaches to all aspects of social life. At the same time, the reading Chinese public had the opportunity to more widely acquaint themselves with the literature of Russia, Japan and other neighboring and more distant peoples, to know the expectations of foreign intellectuals from the future, to participate in the propaganda of Marxist thoughts and history of the Russian socialist revolution, to direct the eye to the development of the spirit of the time, to reflect spiritual values of that period and thus influenced the life and behavior of the masses. An example of the influence of this kind of cultural and social movements on the work of the classic writer Eroshenko during the May 4th movement.
